Beijing, China

Hi Everyone, Thank you for all of your messages, keep them coming. We have now arrived in Beijing. We were suposed to be here 3 days ago but our flight was cancelled due to engine faults so we stayed in the Radison in Delhi for 2 nights which was so beautiful. We had a 7 hour flight yesterday and jumped 2 and half hours ahead so that took a whole day. China is sooo different to India, it is so beautifl and clean, the pepole are so friendly and do not expect to get tipped just for saying hello as they did in India. lol. The driving is so much better too you don't fear for your life every time you get into a car. The Hostel we are in is great, they have chinese lessons and different shows we can see. the weather is alot better here, there is no humidity and it is nice and cool but sunny at the same time, just like summer in England. We now have 9 days in Beijing, We will be going on the Beijing City tour on Sunday and the Great wall of china tour on Monday, then hopefully the zoo and other attractions. love you and miss you all. xxxxxxxx
